Why Alamy is the best place to sell your stock imagery

Whether it’s your full-time job, a weekend hobby or you’re a student; join our community who are already selling their stock imagery on Alamy to over 100,000 customers worldwide.

We have high brand exposure and dedicated marketing and sales teams that are focused on selling your stock imagery worldwide. We’re an established resource for big brand names with big media budgets that need a range of stock image choices.

With lots of choice available, stock agencies have to stand out and offer something unique. Here are four reasons why we think Alamy is the best place for you to sell your stock imagery:

We’re fair, transparent and easy to work with – you get 50% of the sale
We make it easy for you to work with us, we’re non-exclusive, we don’t tie you in with a long term contract and we let you choose what you want to sell. We also offer a better commission than most other agencies, we split it down the middle – 50/50 (the industry average is about 70/30 with 70% going to the agency).

You can send us anything
Our customers love us and the encyclopaedic nature of our collection – we have a bigger, broader, more unique collection than any other library so we want everything you’ve got.

We’re ethical and philanthropic
We really care! We aim to create the best environment for buying and selling imagery. As an independent agency, we’re not corporate and we have a friendly and open approach, underpinned by integrity and efficiency. We donate a significant amount of our operating profit to education and medical research – find out more about our philosophy here.

We’ve paid over $165 million to our contributors
We have an international network of happy contributors who’ve shared in this $165 million!“Thanks Alamy, you’ve just paid for my house.” – Keith Morris, photographer. As photographer feedback goes, it doesn’t really get any better than that. Read Keith’s story here: Selling stock photos online with Alamy – $250K and counting.
